Breakfast is commonly known as the important meal of the day. Breakfast is crucial as it is the first meal we consume after a night of fasting when we sleep. When we have breakfast, we are replenishing the intake of glucose in our body. This would boost our body’s energy level and get us ready for the day. 

If we prepare a healthy breakfast, our body would be getting the required amounts of vitamins and minerals to maintain good health. Eating breakfast would also make us more energetic and alert. We would also be less likely to consume snacks such as junk food in the morning when we are feeling full after consuming breakfast.  

A healthy breakfast could consist of oats, cereals, fruits, yoghurt, milk, nuts, eggs, bread and vegetables. If you normally don’t have time to prepare breakfast in the morning. You could prepare some simple breakfast dishes and store it in the refrigerator. You could heat up your breakfast in the microwave and bring it to work or school the next day. 

There are people who skip breakfast because they are trying to lose weight. Some are even too lazy to prepare and eat something in the day. No matter what the reason is to skip breakfast, it is still best to eat something healthy in the morning. Eating breakfast would improve your ability to focus and concentrate throughout the day.
